Chapter 2424: Chapter 2423: Confession
As the City Lord, bringing people from other worlds is actually not very compliant.
But Ling Feng’s status is different, as he came through trials, naturally he has some privileges.
However, he didn’t immediately bring Gu Li, because there were other matters.
The time was noon, and several hours had passed since Ling Feng became a Second Grade disciple, but Feiyan hadn’t appeared.
So Ling Feng left home and went directly to her place.
When he arrived, Ling Feng knocked on the door, only to find the courtyard gate slightly ajar.
He stepped inside, the courtyard was silent with no movement at all.
Ling Feng called out, "Is anyone there?" but received no response.
Feiyan clearly had a servant before, but now there was no sign of them.
After hesitating for a moment, Ling Feng walked through the woods to Feiyan’s room door.
He called out again, and finally, a woman’s voice came from inside: "Please come in!"
Ling Feng sighed in relief; if there was no response, he would have wanted to break in.
This time he pushed the door open and went in, seeing Feiyan, he immediately smiled and said, "Why are you staying at home so quietly?"
In front of him, Feiyan was wearing a dress made of a delicate gauze, although not transparent, it was quite special.
Feiyan looked up at him and said something that surprised Ling Feng: "I was waiting for you."
"Waiting for me?"
Ling Feng was stunned, then smiled and asked, "You knew I would definitely come?"
"Didn’t know, just guessed."
Feiyan looked at him earnestly, "If I don’t show up for a few days, you’d definitely come."
"Uh, why wait for me?"
Ling Feng asked confusedly.
"Sit down first, then we’ll talk."
Feiyan turned to look at the chair beside her.
Ling Feng acknowledged, walked over, and sat down beside her.
Feiyan’s eyes never left him, and when Ling Feng sat down, she lightly parted her lips: "Since coming back, I’ve been thinking about something."
"Mo Yan’s matter?" Ling Feng asked.
"Yes!"
Feiyan nodded, "Thinking back, he and I both ascended from Fifth Rank to Fourth Grade, back then, everyone was high-spirited and made a pact to ascend to Third Grade together."
Ling Feng looked at her without speaking, knowing that her emotions right now must be quite melancholic.
After saying that, Feiyan continued: "Who would have thought such a thing would happen."
"It’s not your fault." Ling Feng said.
Feiyan glanced at him, "How can it not be? The main reason is because of me; if I had explained things to him earlier, what happened before wouldn’t have happened."
"Not necessarily, a person’s character can’t be changed. He’s inherently narrow-minded, just hadn’t shown it in front of others before." Ling Feng stated.
"Even so, if I had told him, at least he wouldn’t have been provoked to that extent."
After saying that, she stood up, staring directly at Ling Feng, making Ling Feng bewildered.
Swallowing, Ling Feng asked, "You, what’s wrong?"
"I don’t want to make similar mistakes again. From now on, you can declare to others that I’m yours, let others lose hope!" Feiyan declared.
"Ah?"
Ling Feng was completely dumbfounded.
Feiyan pursed her lips, then said: "What? You don’t like me?"
"No." Ling Feng quickly shook his head, "It’s just too, too sudden!"
"Not sudden at all, since we went to Valley of Clouds together to see the mystical light, I’ve been secretly fond of you."
Feiyan seriously, and then sighed: "If I had confessed then, Mo Yan might not have done anything foolish."
Upon hearing this, Ling Feng saw she was still entangled in Mo Yan’s matter, and quickly said: "No one can control these things; his fate was entirely created by himself."
"Mm."
Feiyan nodded, "Let’s not talk about that."
After saying this, she turned and gently sat on Ling Feng’s lap!
Her figure seemed weightless, yet Ling Feng instinctively embraced her waist to prevent her from accidentally falling.
Sitting on Ling Feng’s lap, Feiyan’s face blushed deeply as she looked at him and said, "You already understand my thoughts, my person is yours now, you can do whatever you want."
Ling Feng’s breath hitched, then he took a deep breath: "Really? Then change your clothes first, and come with me."
"Where are we going?"
Feiyan was taken aback and immediately asked.
"Since you’re mine now, naturally you can’t stay here. Come to my place; I’ve renamed it Lingxiao City, and it’s mine now."
Ling Feng said.
Feiyan’s eyes widened, then she said blankly, "But I don’t want to go."
"Why?"
Ling Feng asked, puzzled: "Is it because of Xiao Xiao and Mu Mu?"
"No."
Feiyan shook her head, "This is my home, I can’t bear to leave it, and my Pill Furnace is here."
After saying this, she pleaded a bit, "Can I stay here?"
This demeanor was more akin to pouting, softening Ling Feng’s heart instantly.
Eventually, he nodded: "Alright then, from now on, this will be my other residence."
"Mm."
Feiyan was delighted to hear this, then leaned her head on Ling Feng’s shoulder.
A delicate flower lay before him, but Ling Feng didn’t rush to pick it, instead, he embraced her and said: "Don’t dwell on past issues, they have nothing to do with you anyway. From now on, just focus on cultivation; if you need my help, just say so."
"Okay!"
Feiyan solemnly nodded.
As their eyes met, looking into hers, Ling Feng smiled and playfully pinched her cheek: "Shall I come again tonight?"
"Okay."
Feiyan’s face flushed once more as she slightly lowered her head.
Ling Feng soon left her place.
He didn’t return to Lingxiao City but went directly back to Lingyun Island.
When Gu Li heard that Ling Feng already owned a city in Lingjian Mountain, his eyes widened: "That was quick!"
"I didn’t exert much effort; it was all God Slayer Saber and Kai Tian taking out the Dark Domain’s forces, I just watched from the side." Ling Feng said with a smile.
Seeing his proud expression, Gu Li swallowed, "Boss, that’s a bit like ’Versailles’!"
"What do you mean?"
Ling Feng asked.
"It’s a new term for boasting." Gu Li laughed, then asked: "Boss, what do you plan to do?"
"My city, my rules. I want to change the livelihood there, and need people." Ling Feng stated.
"Well, we have plenty of talent. I’ll arrange it for you!"
Gu Li said, and directly picked up the phone.
